THREE COMMUNIITIES BID FAREWELL TO VETERAN POSTMASTERS

Familiar smiles: Retiring postmasters are, left to right, VanDyke and Carolyn Hatch.

WAYNE CO. – Our daily trip to the post office means friendly service and a smile from a familiar face.

In Wayne County, a few of those faces will be changing on July 31, when three of our postmasters retire from their duties as a result of an incentive program being offered by the U.S. Postal Service.

Retiring postmasters are Beth Hunt in Loa, Carolyn Hatch in Hanksville, and Marielen VanDyke in Lyman.

Beth Hunt began working for the U.S. Postal Service as a Saturday clerk in Loa in June of 1984, where she served for 10 years, transferring in January 1994 to work as a clerk in the Richfield Post Office.

On January 3, 1996, Beth became the Postmaster of Escalante. Soon after, on August 1, 1997, she transferred to the Loa Office upon the retirement of Nadine Brown Taylor. Beth says that serving in her own community has been a very rewarding career. She will miss interacting and associating with the people of Loa and surrounding communities on a daily basis.

Beth and her husband Terry are looking forward to starting another chapter in their lives. They plan on enjoying their children, Trent and Cheryl Hunt and Tammy Ice, and grand-

children: Rylee and Steve, Brayden, Bryson, Brennan, Jason and Millie.

Carolyn Hatch began her career with the Postal Service in April of 1985 as Postmaster Relief/Leave Replacement in Hanksville.

She worked for Postmaster Dave Sellars until he relocated to Manila, UT, in January of 1989. She then served as Officer in Charge (OIC) until April of that same year when she was installed as Postmaster. She served as Secretary/Treasurer for Utah’s National Association of Postmasters of the United States Chapter for 12 years and is still a member of this organization.

Carolyn will host a customer appreciation day on Tuesday, July 31. Everyone is welcome to stop by the Hanksville Post Office for punch and cookies and send her on her way. She plans to work her home based Mary Kay business, do some traveling with friends and family and spend a lot of time with the kids and grandkids scattered from Hanksville to St. George to Pheonix.

She might even drop in on her sisters and brothers, and maybe even spend time with her husband Steven.

Marielen VanDyke began working as Postmaster Leave Replacement at the Lyman Post Office in October of 1986. She never

planned on being a working mom with nine children, but thought learning something new and working 15 to 20 days a year would be workable. When Postmaster Larry Chappell took an early retirement she was asked to be Officer in Charge until they listed the postmaster job. She thought this would be for about four months and then those four months turned into seven years. She became OIC for the Lyman Post Office September 3, 1992 and then postmaster on October 9, 1999. She’s worked for the Postal Service for about 26 years and has been Lyman’s Postmaster for about half that time, 12 years and 9-1/2 months.

Marielen says she’s enjoyed working for the Postal Service and thinks it’s the best job in town. She is now looking forward to retirement and being home, She says her ‘Hubby” Don Gay could certainly use some attention and they hope to be able to do some fun and relaxing things together.

A community party was held for the retirees last Saturday at the Sunglow Restaurant in Bicknell.

New faces serving as Officers in Charge until permanent postmasters are hired at these locations will be: Mary Ellett in Loa, Margene Wirtz in Lyman, and Tracy Albrecht in Hanksville.

ESCALANTE CANYONS ART FESTIVAL ANNOUNCES ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE WINNER ESCALANTE - The Escalante Canyons Art Festival-Everett Ruess Days, in cooperation with Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, has named Palisade, Colorado, resident, Nancy Lewis, the recipient of its first artist-inresidence award. Lewis will spend the month of September painting in Escalante, Utah, and Grand StaircaseEscalante National Monument culminating with the Escalante Canyons Art Festival on September 28 and 29.

As the artist-in-residence, Lewis, who works in pastel, watercolor, and oil, will be provided with accommodations and a $1000 stipend.

“This residency will provide me an opportunity . . . to study and paint in an area of extreme beauty and intrigue,” Lewis said. “This

region has unique design elements: massive shapes, value ranges, contrasting colors, and atmospheric perspective.

The Escalante Canyons Art Festival is a premier art, literary, and musical gathering held every September in Escalante, Utah, on Scenic Byway 12 in the heart of Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument. Although the festival is in its ninth year, this is the first year it has sponsored an artist-in-residence, but according to festival director Sandy Larsen, it won’t be the last. The artist-in-residence, open to all plein air artists, will be a permanent part of future festivals.

The artist-in-residence is chosen through a competitive process based upon the strength of the artist’s work and a proposed com-

munity project. While in Escalante, Lewis will offer two half-day creativity labs, which are free and open to the public.

“The goal of this free half-day session is to discover or rediscover the inner artist in all of us,” Lewis said. “Each attendee will create their own interpretation of the Escalante landscape using Watercolor Resist method. This is fun for whole families.”

Another draw for families at the festival will be “Dr. Scott” of PBS’s Dinosaur Train. Scott Sampson will be speaking the first night of the festival, Friday, September 28. Sampson and Lewis will be joined by many talented artists, speakers, and musicians throughout the weekend.

All festival events are free and open to the public.

The Escalante Canyons Art Festival’s upcoming artist in residence, Nancy Lewis, stands with her landscape painting, In the Moment.

WAYNE COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE ISSUES CHARGES IN LOST LAKE FIRE LOA - On Sunday, June 3, 2012, Wayne County Sheriff's Office was called to assist the Fish Lake National Forest on several new wild land fire starts. These fires were located in the Lost Lake area within the North Slope of the Boulder Mountain, approximately 4 miles SW of Teasdale town. The forest service began to suppress the fires on Sunday afternoon. The fire consumed 2,075 acres prior to containment.

Shortly after the initial report of the fire, Wayne County Sheriff's Office, and US National Forest Service believed that the fire was suspicious in its origin. There had been no lightning strikes within the area, and there were no designated camping areas near the fires point of origin. In coordination with US Forest Service and the Wayne County Sheriff's Office a possible arson investigation ensued.

As a result of the investigation, on Monday July 16 2012, Wayne County's Attorney has filed a felony arson charge with the Wayne County 6th District Court, against Lance Durfey, a 38 year old male resident of Torrey, UT.

MAN FROM WAYNE COUNTY KILLED BY LIGHTNING STRIKE BICKNELL - Twentyfour year-old Jesse King of Bicknell, Utah was killed when he and his dog were struck by lightning on a fishing trip in Garfield County.

King was fishing at Row Lake on the west side of Boulder Mountain Sat-

urday evening about 7 p.m. when a storm came through and King and his dog sought shelter under a tree.

Lightning struck the tree and King and his dog were killed instantly. King was found by his wife, who was at their campsite nearby.

SALT LAKE CITY – July 17, 2012 – USDA State Director Dave Conine announced five Rural Business Enterprise Grant (RBEG) awards in Utah. Grant funds will go to assist education improvement and career training to strengthen rural areas as well as assist business development.

Southern Utah University received a grant of $48,500 to implement an economic gardening demonstration project within three rural regions of Utah. The project will demonstrate the viability of economic gardening, provide training and certification, and explore its feasibility.

Bridgerland Applied Technology College has received a grant of $20,000. Grant funds will be used to purchase equipment needed for their Commercial Driver’s License program. The project will enable students to be trained using equipment comparable to what is currently used in the trucking industry as well as provide their acquired skills to small and emerging private business enterprises in rural areas. Bridgerland Applied Technology College has also received a $30,000 grant to purchase equipment for the Cache Business Resource Center Kitchen Incubator. Local businesses are permitted access to this commercial grade kitchen, which also meets Food and Drug Administration standards. The kitchen incubator is anticipated to enable new and existing food-related businesses to continue operations until they are able to purchase equipment for private commercial kitchens.

Escalante City will use $36,500 in grant funds to develop a business plan and evaluate the feasibility of re-opening a new emerging business enterprise. The plan incorporates an analysis of retooling a mill to produce a more varied product line with an emphasis on value-added products.

The Intermountain Native American Association Inc. has received a grant of $15,000 to create a business plan for the Utah Indian Housing Council as an emerging Native American Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) in Utah. The CDFI fund is an innovative federal agency within the Treasury Department that was established in 1994, to promote community development in distressed urban and rural communities by increasing the availability of credit, investment capital and financial services available.

The RBEG program provides grants for rural projects that finance and facilitate development of small and emerging rural businesses help fund distance learning networks, and help fund employment related adult education programs. To assist with business development, RBEGs may fund a broad array of activities.

WAYNE AND GARFIELD AMONG USDA-DESIGNATED DISASTER AREAS DUE TO WORSENING DROUGHT WASHINGTON, DC On July 18th, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack designated 39 additional counties in eight states as primary natural disaster areas due to damage and losses caused by drought and excessive heat. During the 2012 crop year, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has designated 1,297 counties across 29 states as disaster areas, making all qualified farm operators in the areas eligible for low-interest emergency loans.

Utah counties designated as disaster areas in USDA’s Juy 18 announcement were Garfield County, Kane County, Wasatch County and Wayne County.

Additional counties designated are in the states of Arkansas, Georgia, Indiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, Tennessee, and Wyoming.

The U.S. Drought Monitor currently reports that 61 percent of the continental United States is in a moderate to exceptional drought.

Earlier in the week, USDA also designated the

entire state of Missouri a disaster area due to drought in response to a request from the state’s governor.

Increasingly hot and dry conditions from California to Delaware have damaged or slowed the maturation of crops such as corn and soybeans, as well as pasture- and rangeland. Vilsack has instructed USDA subcabinet leaders to travel to affected areas to augment ongoing assistance from state-level USDA staff and provide guidance on the department’s existing disaster resources. To deliver assistance to those who need it most, the Secretary last week effectively reduced the interest rate for emergency loans from 3.75 percent to 2.25 percent, while creating greater flexibility for ranchers within the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) for emergency haying and grazing purposes.

In addition, the disaster designations announced today fall under a new, streamlined process that simplifies Secretarial disaster designa-

tions and will result in a 40 percent reduction in processing time for most counties affected by disasters.

USDA agencies have been working for weeks with state and local officials, as well as individuals, businesses, farmers and ranchers, as they begin the process of helping to get people back on their feet. USDA offers a variety of resources for states and individuals affected by the recent disasters. For additional information and updates about USDA’s efforts, please visit www.usda.gov/disaster or USDA’s drought page.

Jokingly described as "two parts-Teletubby, onepart lava lamp," Olympic mascot Wenlock (right) and Paralympic mascot Mandeville (left) are the official mascots of the 2012 London Summer Olympics that are getting lots of attention worldwide!

The sporty duo have cameras for eyes and taxi headlights, and Wenlock has friendship bracelets in the color of Olympic rings while Mandeville has a pink stopwatch to signify the competitive spirit of the games.

We know the 2012 Summer Olympics are being held in London...No stranger to centuries of history and interesting trivia, London has already played host to the Summer Olympic games in 1908 and 1948.

Now the British capital city becomes the first city in history to host the Olympic games three times.

Do you know where the 2016 Olympics are to be held? Rio de Janeiro Who won the first women's olympic marathon?

Joan Benoit in Los Angeles in 1984 The idea of an Olympic Flame burning from the start of the games to the closing was first introduced at the 1928 Amsterdam games.

BRYCE VALLEY AREA NEWS

Bringing Pioneer Values Alive Today

by Vicki D. Syrett 679-8687 or vickidiane36@hotmail.com Thanks to the Young Single Adults and their leaders, Jean and Spring Seiler for a great 24th celebration on Saturday, July 21st. It was a very well done event and there were many people in attendance. For both the fourth and twenty fourth celebrations, many come home to visit and attend the events taking place. Including the wonderful fireworks that take place at 10 PM in the evening at Ruby’s Inn. They had a drawing this year and many wonderful gifts were won by folks including Art and I who won a post hole digger. Our son Mike won a fishing pole and a tackle box. What great gifts. The main prize, a computer game (I am not well versed on what they are) was won by the Seiler’s but they put it back so someone else could win it. It was won by Lucky Cox. Jason Bybee had a lucky day as did some of the Brinkerhoff family. There were many others who won great gifts and to top the day off the food was great. Many games and booths were set up and everyone had a great time. It was fun visiting with those who came from far away to attend the days celebration. Thanks to the folks that put this together for helping us to remember our pioneer heritage with a wonderful parade and a fun day. The Boy Scouts in all three towns, Tropic, Cannonville, and Henrieville, all benefited from the days activities.

Ran into Dixie Shakespear who was at the park with her son Danny and his wife Vicki. She was looking very happy and seemed to be enjoying herself. She is such a lovely woman and loved dearly by her friends.

Oakley Pollock thanks for the great piano solo you did today for us. You play very well and we enjoyed hearing your music.

Thanks to Renon Bybee, Pat Shakespear, and Layne Le Fevre who all gave us a great talk on the pioneers and the song that makes them think about the pioneer heritage we have.

Congratulatins to Zennon Hutchings of Tropic for being advanced to a Teacher in the Aaronic Priesthood.

Our son Mike and his wife Stacie and children, Cambry, MaKay, and Ian came to spend the day with us. We had a great time at the park and then came home to do some BBQing.

Fun to have them here.

Sandy Johnson wants to remind her Cub Scout Wolf Den to continue working on their requirements and hoped they had been all summer. The theme for August is Honesty and would like parents, please reinforce this trait with your son and impress them of the importance of being honest in all things. Group A will meet on the first day of school, August 21st at 3:00 p.m. in the BVES library. This group consists of Carter Willyerd, Braysyn Brinkerhoff, Ethen Nez, and Keston Roundy.

Group B will be meeting on August 28th at 3:00 pm at the BVES Library. This group includes Brock Syrett, Ashtyn Stevens, John Ahlstrom, Porter Steel and Dallon Clarke. PLEASE have your son save a 2 liter empty pop bottle for our upcoming rocket launch. Details will be given later.

The rains today made the air smell so sweet. It was great to hear the big drops falling on our roof. We sure need the moisture but my poor little dogs don’;t like the thunder. When I was little my mom used to take us in a closet to read stories while it thundered and so we became afraid of the thunder and not the lightening.

She was very afraid of the electrical storms. I think it is funny as I look back on it now but then it was scary.

Saw Jon Seiler today at church and he is looking great. He works up in Salt Lake and is very busy. It was great seeing him again.

The Jake Seiler family and the Chad Seiler Family were all here celebrating with family and Friends.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EVERYONE!!

One hundred and sixty five years ago, Brigham Young sat up in his wagon overlooking the Salt Lake valley and declared– “This is the Place.” As these pioneers entered the Salt Lake valley, and settled many other valleys across this state, they set to work. They tilled the soil, planted grain and harvested the crops. They built houses and churches and social halls. They started what each generation is now tasked to finish – the transformation of this state into the best place to live.

Peter S. Cooke is Utah’s Democratic candidate for Governor.

I have a connection to those pioneers.

My wife, Heather, comes from pioneer ancestry. Her ancestors, related to Joseph and Hyrum Smith, were among those early pioneers who headed West.

Not only did those pioneers leave us this great land we now live in, they also gave us something even more important. They left us their values. What are those pioneer values they wanted us to have?

One is hard work. It took hard work to pull a handcart across a thousand miles of plains and desert and mountains. It took hard work to break the ground, plant the crops, milk the cows, mend the fences, and so on.

Another value was personal responsibility. They didn’t wait for someone else to plow those fields, dig those irrigation ditches, or harvest those crops. They did it.

They took responsibility for doing it. They knew that building this great state was their responsibility, nobody else’s.

Another value was family. Sometimes we forget that pioneers usually came here as families – husbands, wives, children. Many of them didn’t make it. They grieved over those losses as they buried their dead, wiped away their tears, and moved on.

They never forgot those spouses or children they left on the plains. They worked together as families to settle this land. Women, men, children. They all had their chores to build the family business or run the family farm.

Still another value was the importance of the community. The pioneers came together across the plains. These weren’t individual mountain men or prospectors out on their own. They came together because they planned to work together in this promised land to make a better tomorrow for themselves and their children.

Community – they understood what that meant.

And, finally, service. They served each other by helping each other survive in a new land. They helped build each other’s houses, planted each other’s crops, harvested together, and worked together to build communities for all. They knew what they were doing. They knew they were building communities not just for themselves or their families, but for generations in the future.

I mention these pioneer values because at this time of the year, particularly, we need to remember what the pioneers have given us. And we should take a moment to examine ourselves to see whether we are maintaining the values they gave us and whether we are passing them on to our children.

Are we being good stewards of the land God has given us and we inherited from those pioneers who settled it for us?

Are we teaching our children the values of hard work and personal responsibility?

In our society, are we valuing family as much as we should? The family is under attack in some quarters. Are we doing enough to make sure families survive and even thrive in our modern society?

Are we serving in our communities and contributing to make them better? Are we doing the job we should to teach our children the importance of service?

It’s time to exhibit the pioneer spirit by remembering the values they left us. It’s time to bring pioneer values alive today.

Be Like Jesus No Matter What

Pizza Tip

By Cynthia Kimball Yes, I am, but so, too, is Stephanie Nielson. You may know her. According to Lawson (2012), “Four years ago, [she] was in a horrific plane crash that burned 80 percent of her body. Since the accident, she has overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges to reclaim a beautiful life with her husband and children. And she is determined to fulfill what she believes is her personal mission: to share the hope of the gospel with others” (p. 49).

Yes, Stephanie is like Jesus. As a matter of fact, since her accident, 12 people that she knows of have converted to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. On her website even, www.nieniedialogues.com, she offers to mail anyone a Book of Mormon and for free (Lawson, 2012, p. 55). “Once of my favorite parts of my story is being able to be a missionary. Through my words and my story, people will see that there is a God” (Lawson, 2012, p. 55).

I read Stephanie’s story in the July/August issue of LDS Living. If you haven’t read this issue, you need to. And even though I had heard Stephanie’s story before reading this particular one, “Sharing her Hope”, for some reason, this time, I was really moved and impacted than before. Truly if you’ve ever thought you

had a problem, you may feel different after reading Stephanie’s story. What I love about her is how she’s taken a difficult and tragic situation and does good with it. She really and truly is like Jesus. “This is my mission,” she explains. “I would share the gospel with everybody who needed it.

Through this accident, this is what I am supposed to do” (as cited in Lawson, 2012).

So how can we be like Jesus? Maybe you’ve been diagnosed with a disease.

Are you like Jesus when you attend your appointments? Or if you’ve been in an accident, do you use what’s happened to share the gospel no matter how much pain you’re in? Or perhaps you’ve lost a family member. How are you sharing the gospel through that experience? Maxwell (1974) states, “ The highest compliment I can pay to you is that God has placed you here and now at this time to serve in his kingdom… you will be involved and concerning which you will have some great influence.” So that influence can be good or bad. How will you manage the curriculum Heavenly Father has so graciously designed for and given you? Will you be like Jesus and share the gospel thinking, “Why not me?” or will you complain and ask, “Why me?”

Maxwell (1974) states, “God loves us and, loving us, has placed us here to cope with challenges which he will place before us…

He will customize the curriculum for each of us in order to teach us the things we most need to know. He will set before us in life what we need, not always what we like. And this will require us to accept with all our hearts…” Nielsen believes, “We have been given all the tools and more to get through anything that comes our way” (Lawson, 2012).

Let’s remember Maxwell’s words (1974), as we work to be like Jesus no matter what’s happened to us: “Whatever the form the test takes, we must be willing to pass it. We must reach breaking points without breaking. We must be willing, if necessary, to give up our lives—not because we have a disdain for life as some do, but even though we love life—because we are the servants of him who did that in such an infinite way for all of us.”

New Neighbors

My quiet Saturday morning ended abruptly when my 12-year-old son, Billy, and one of his friends burst through the door.

“Hey Dad, announced Billy, “have you met the new neighbors?”

“No.” “Come on Dad, you have to meet them.”

“Some other time; I’m busy.”

“Dad, you have to meet them now.”

From the urgency in Billy’s voice, I assumed the neighbors were waiting outside. I set aside my project and went to the front of the house. No one was there.

“Where are they?” I asked.

“Well, Dad,” he explained, “we haven’t met them yet either, but our baseball is in their living room!”

A lawyer sent an overdue bill to a client. A note was attached that stated: “This bill is one year old.”

By return mail the lawyer had his bill back. To it was attached a card which read: “Happy Birthday.”

TORREY NEWS really like to know more what it is like to be a veteran of the United States Armed Forces, take just a little time from your busy life and talk to someone in your community that has served in the United States Armed Forces about why we as Armed Forces veterans chose to serve and protect the freedoms we enjoy as free country. The personal revelations of time served in the United States Armed Forces just might help you gain a better understanding of why a Wayne County Veterans Memorial is so important to some of us and our families, on so many levels. The reason we honorably served and those that sacrificed their lives was a selfless and altruistic choice, personally speaking, it was a duty we personally felt to protect the liberties and values that as Americans we value. Plan to attend the August 1st 2012 meeting at the Loa Town offices, at 6:00 p.m. in show of your support of this Wayne County Veterans Memorial project. See this week’s advertisement in the Wayne Insider for more details.

Jesse King, son of Verland and Terry King tragically passed away Saturday evening July 21st with his beloved dog by his side as a result of a lighting strike on Boulder Mountain near Jacobs Valley. Jesse

King was a 2006 graduate of Wayne High and was a constant inspirational individual to all in Wayne County that knew him; Jesse was also a dedicated runner at Wayne High with his eye always on the finish line in all things he pursued. In Jesse’s presence there were no strangers, openly Jesse was willing to except all individuals at face value.

Jesse was an exceptional student at Wayne High and consistently raised the standard of excellence for all of us that knew him.

Thanks Jesse for making our world a better place.

In and around Wayne County the July afternoon rains continue to be the big news of the day at places like the Country Café, Ellett’s and Brian Farm in Loa, M&D and at Howard’s in Bicknell and other morning gathering hot spots all around Wayne County. Unlike a month ago when Wayne County was visibly experiencing a lack of any significant recorded moisture and the estimated $3.2 million effort by the U.S. Forest Service was in place to fight an intentionally set fire that threatened lives and homes above Teasdale in the Lost Lake area. As is always the comforting case the Wayne County Fire Departments, the Wayne County Sheriff’s

Sick Dog

When our client’s dog lapped up anti-freeze, the veterinarian I work for ordered a unique treatment: an IV drip mixing fluids with vodka. “Go buy the cheapest bottle you can find,” he told me.

At the liquor store, I was uneasy buying cheap booze so early in the day, and I felt compelled to explain things to the clerk.

“Believe it or not,” I said, “this is for a sick dog.”

As I was leaving, the next customer plunked down two bottles of muscatel and announced, “These are for my cats.”

Overdue Bill

Adus Dorsey A Wayne County wide “call to arms” and a meeting has been issued for August 1st 2012 at the Loa Town offices, at 6:00 p.m., “sharp” by the presiding chairman of the Wayne County Veterans Memorial Project manger, U.S. Army Viet-Nam veteran Pace Ellett. All Wayne County United States Armed Forces Veterans, all local bidding building contractors, and all community minded citizens interested in seeing the completion of a Veterans Memorial in Loa are invited to attend this important meeting. For all interested and supportive individuals donations for the Wayne County Veterans Memorial project are encouraged and are appreciated. For more information about supporting this project contact the Loa Town Office, Loa, Mayor Jeff Olsen, Veterans Memorial Chairman Pace Ellett, or Newell Harward.

To be discussed at the August 1st meeting is funding opportunities and proposed construction plans of a Wayne County Veterans Memorial on the newly purchased and vacated main street property graciously being provided by Loa Town and the dedicated efforts of the Loa Town citizens, the Loa Town Board and Mayor Jeff Olsen.

If you do not know a United States Armed Forces Veteran or you would

I deliver pizza to help cover my college tuition.

Once I called on customers who sent their seven-yearold son to pay me. As he approached the screen door, I noticed he was carrying a check in one hand and two dollars in the other, which I assumed was my tip.

To my dismay, he pocketed the bills before handing me the check, which was for the exact cost of the pizza.

“Could that have been a tip?” I asked, trying not to sound accusatory.

“Yep,” he replied proudly. “Not bad for just a walk from the living room and back!”

department and the Wayne County EMS which includes the brother and sisterhood of volunteers from Hanksville, Loa, Fremont, Lyman, Bicknell, Teasdale, Grover and Torrey will continually respond to all fire and emergency related episodes in the Wayne County area at all hours of the day and night, (can I get a Wayne County hallelujah and show of support for all our Wayne County volunteers).

On a happy note, Uncle Ray Conrad and Kath Knight of Grover have officially announced their upcoming union in marriage, more information and a formal poem by Uncle Ray is sure to be in the works detailing all the Grover barn yard details.

Congratulations Uncle Ray and Kath Knight.

MISSIONS

FYI PANGUITCH

By: Mack Oetting ~ E-mail: mackoetting @gmail.com What a fun home coming week it was. With Pioneer Days on Tuesday it kind of made things different, a lot of the reunions were held over the weekend. The 24th High School Rodeo was a success, but because of the timing they didn’t have as many entries as years pass. The Old Tyme Fiddlers were very entertaining and had large crowds on both nights. I had no idea that the Desperado Duel was such a big deal, this year they started in front of the fire station and there was about 150 riders starting at 700 am and another 100 or so riders left a half hour earlier. The woman that runs the race is from Red Rock bikers and said that there are between 250 and 300 riders each year and they love the ride.

There is little traffic and except for Red Canyon it is pretty level, some of the riders were coming in at 11 am and it’s an 80 mile ride, that’s about 20 miles an hour. Talking to a couple of riders at the Lions breakfast, they were not in the race, but had left the Idaho border on Monday and were headed to Kanab that day to finish off a boarder to boarder ride. They were averaging about 80 miles a day. The Desperado Duel was a month early this year, but the weather was perfect, cool and no wind, this race brings in a lot of people to town.

The Panguitch Lions breakfast turned out really well, with the Fiddlers here and the bike riders that added to how many we fed.

Several people ask when the Lions were going to have another breakfast, this was their last breakfast of the year, and however the Lions were kind enough to let the American Legion do the ATV Rally at the end of August. Since many of the Lions are Vets, you will get the same food and it will be down at the City Park and it will be open to all.

Will report on the 24th events next week.

Summer is fleeting, up next is the Garfield County Fair in the third week of August, get out your crafts, quilts, animals and talents so you can show them off at the Fair. There will be all kinds of fun events and a free County Commissioners lunch, hosted by the Commissioners and cooked by the Lions Club.

The County Fair will end with the Panguitch Lions Club 8th annual Demolition Derby, there are a couple of cars getting ready over at Danny Fletcher’s house, many of the young racers have moved out of the area, so we won’t have as many locals this year.

The Fair is for all of Garfield County, so those from the east side of the County come on out and enjoy the fun.

The last fun thing of the summer will be the ATV Rally with rides all over our area and there will be have guides for each one of them. So if you have an ATV and want to see some new territory, sign up. There will be an ATV giving away to one of those that sign up for the rally. The Legion will serve breakfast for the three days.

Congratulations to the Bryce Valley and Panguitch’s FCCLA doing so well in Orlando at the Nationals. There are over 5,000 competitors at the Nationals and winning so many medals is unbelievable. Tammy Bennett their mentor has these kids ready with their projects and has done a bang up job with them over the years, taking them to Nationals every year. The Panguitch’s TARs club (Teen Age Republicans) went back to the Nationals in Washington DC and are the Number 1 TARs club in the Country, this is their second victory in three years. Three students went back to Washington, Sicily Houston, Cherish and Wyatt Moore and were chaperoned by Deanne Moore. Sicily and Cherish were also part of the FCCLA Club. Wyatt

Moore was honored twice by the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation for his work teaching the students at Bryce Valley and Panguitch about Juvenile Diabetes.

Wyatt’s project this year was I Day, 1 cause, Type 1 Diabetes; he asked the students to bring a dollar to school and sold 110 shirts to raise $1,300 for Diabetes Foundation.

Wyatt is also going to Brazil as an exchange student, his senior year. His grandfather, Earl Roe started this exchange program many years ago and I bet he would be really proud of Wyatt in this adventure.

Got some guests that are bored, bring them down to the Quilt Walk Park at 7 pm., for a historical tour of the town. Panguitch’s Ambassador Art Cooper (the Panguitch Professor) is giving tours each night, Tuesday thru Saturday.

The reviews have been very positive, Art makes the tour fun, even if you have lived here your whole life, I will guarantee you will learn something from Arts tour.

We have some new entrepreneurs in town, Dave and Bonita Cooper have purchased the KOA on the south side of town, and they say that business has been good all summer. The Cooper’s have a Travel Company that has placed three very large tents at their place for people that are traveling with their company. The Hitch-N-Post has new owners also, Jodi Pouliot is the General Manager and Randy Hellms is the head of Operations.

Their business is also doing well, this last weekend they only had three spaces available. Ben and Lisa McEwen have purchased the Canyon View Motel. Ben’s great aunt and uncle were Reed and Opal Miller who owned the Canyon View for many, many years. So its good to have the Motel back in the family. All of these owners are delightful, stop by and welcome them to Panguitch.

Elder Cache Mortensen Mark Twain stated that God made idiots for practice and then he created school boards. It saddens me that another overachiever woman has gone.

Annie Eldridge who after 15 years of putting in12 to 16 hours a day at the district office, was transferred to Bryce Valley.

This summer she was told if she wanted a job she had to reapply, at half her former salary. Annie and her husband Kevin move to North Dakota and the oil fields, it is just killing her to leave her Grandchildren. I hope with three new board members in January, that this disgusting treatment of women employees will come to a halt. The district needs to hang out a sign, “ If you are an overachiever woman don’t waste your time applying”.

Don’t you just love these monsoons, everyone’s lawn looks so great, but boy do they grow fast.

Elder Cache Mortensen has returned from honorably serving for two years in the Florida Orlando Mission. He will be speaking in the Tropic Ward at 11:50 a.m. Sunday July 29, 2012. He is the son of Shawn and Crystal Mortensen and grandson of Paul and Keela Mangum and Lyle and Nancy Mortensen. Welcome Home!!!

NON-ACUTE QUALITY VIOLATION TOTAL COLIFORMS-POSITIVE The water delivered by the Teasdale Special Service District water system has been found, through recent routine tests, to be in violation of the National Primary Drinking Water Regulations. The tests have indicated the presence of Total Coliforms.

Mandatory Health Effects Language: The United States Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) sets drinking water standards and has determined that the presence of total coliforms is a possible health concern. Total coliforms are common in the environment and are generally not harmful themselves. The presence of these bacteria in drinking water, however, generally is a result of a problem with water treatment or the pipes which distribute the water, and indicates that the water may be contaminated with organisms that can cause disease. Disease symptoms may include diarrhea, cramps, nausea, and possibly jaundice, and any associated headaches, and fatigue. These symptoms, however, are not just associated with disease-causing organisms in drinking water, but also may be caused by a number of factors other than your drinking water. EPA has set an enforceable drinking water standard for total coliforms to reduce the risk of these adverse health effects. Under this standard, no more than 5.0 percent of the samples collected during a month can contain these bacteria; except that systems collecting fewer than 40 samples per month, that have one total coliform- positive sample per month, are not violating the standard. Drinking water which meets this standard is usually not associated with a health risk from disease-causing bacteria and should be considered safe.

The Utah Department of Environmental Quality does not believe this problem is serious enough to issue a Boil Order at this time, but has urged us to solve the problem as soon as possible.

We wish to assure you that we are taking all necessary steps to identify and correct this problem.

PUBLIC NOTICE Bicknell Town Culinary Water System Important Information About Your Drinking Water Our water system recently violated a drinking water standard.

Although this incident was not an emergency,as our customers, you have a right to know what happened and what we did to correct this situation.

We routinely monitor for drinking water contaminants. We took five (5) samples to test for the presence of coliform bacteria during July. Four (4) of our samples showed the presence of total coliform bacteria. The standard is that no more than [1 sample per month/5 percent of samples] may do so.

What should you do?

• You l!2.n2! need to boil your water Or take other corrective actions, However, if you have specific health concerns, consult your doctor.

• People with severely compromised immune systems, infants, and some elderly may be at increased risk. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. General guidelines on ways to lessen the risk of infection by microbes are available from EPA's Safe Drinking Water Hotline at (800) 4264791.

What does this mean?

This is not an emergency. If It had been, you would have been notified immediately. Coliform bacteria are generally not harmful themselves. Coliforms are bacteria which are naturally present in the environment and are used as an indicator that other, potentially-harmful, bacteria may be present. Coliforms were found in more samples than allowed and this was a waming of potential problems.

Usually, coliforms are a sign that there could be a problem with the system's treatment or distribution system (pipes). Whenever we detect coliform bacteria in any sample, we do follow-up testing to see if other bacteria of greater concern, such as fecal coliform or E. coli, are present. We did not find any of these bacteria in our subsequent testing, and further testing shows that this problem has been resolved.

What happened? What was done?

The chlorinator at the Brinkerhoff Spring failed to function properly. It did not release chlorine into the system on a regular basis as it is programed to do. We manually put chlorine into the lines and flushed them. The new tests were fine. Sunrise Engineering is working on the mechanical problems at the spring.

For more information, please contact Scott Woolsey at (435) 691-3129.

Please share this infonnation with all the other people who drink this water, especially those who may not have received this notice.

This notice is being sent to you by Bicknell Town Culinary Water System, ID# 28001.

Debra Callison

PANGUITCH - Debra Marie Callison, 43, of Panguitch, passed away at her home in Panguitch on July 21, 2012. She was born September 18, 1968 in Visalia, California to James Richard Callison, Sr. and Rosalie Brookshire.

Deb served as an EMT for Garfield County for 14 years. During that time she gave some of the most compassionate care imaginable. Her unselfish attitude and her desire to help others got her into trouble sometimes. She was an incredible business woman, and she will be missed by those who knew and associated with her at her Panguitch Store, Lee’s Indian Store, and in Florida. She had one of the most remarkable memories, a very entertaining sense of humor and quick wit. You always had to be on your toes with Deb around. She loved to fish, swim and drive her Ford pick-up. She would rescue any animal in need. She was known for her fiesty, lovable spirit. She was a FIGHTER, her fight was not an easy one, or one that many of us could have tackled and fought with as valiantly as she did.

Debra is survived by mother, Rosalie Ward; brothers, James Richard (Tonya) Callison, Jr., WA; Edy (April) Callison, CA; Fred Callison, AZ; Mel Dozier, AZ; and nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her father.

Cremation services have been held and private family memorial services will be held at a later date. Funeral Directors: Magleby Mortuary, Richfield, Salina and Manti.

WILL CONTESTS

By Jeffery McKenna A will or trust contest is a form of litigation in which the validity of a will or trust can be challenged. Family members, spouses, children and business partners are examples of interested parties who may have the standing (financial interest) to contest a will or trust. Dismay over the size of an inheritance is the most common reason to challenge a will or trust. However, the unfairness of asset distribution is not generally grounds for contesting a will or trust. There must be a legal defect in the document for it to be contested. The following are some reasons that a

will or trust can be contested.

The will or trust was not properly executed - A will or trust can be contested on the grounds that it was not properly drafted, signed, or witnessed in accordance with statutory legal requirements. Generally, a will has more formalities to follow than a trust.

• The testator or trustor was not mentally competent - Competency to make a will means that the testator understood the nature and extent of his assets and knew the parties to whom the assets would be distributed. A will may be declared void if it can be proved that the testator was senile, delusional or of unsound mind when the will was created. The standards for executing a trust are generally the same. Incompetence may be proven by medical records, irrational conduct of the testator and the testimony of those who observed him/her at the time the will or trust was executed.

• The will or trust was the product of fraud or undue influence - Undue influence occurs when the testator or trustor is compelled or coerced to execute the will or trust as a result of improper pressure exerted upon him/her. Fraud occurs when a false statement is knowingly made causing the testator or trustor to sign a will or trust in a different manner than he/she would have if the statement had not been made.

• A second, more recent, will or trust is discovered - If proven valid, the newer will or trust would replace the older document.

• Miscellaneous reasons - There are other circumstances under which a will or trust can be contested. These include suspicions of forgery, the existence of pre-existing contracts relating to asset distribution that may nullify the distribution in the will or trust, suspicious circumstances that could cause the distribution set forth in the will or trust to be looked upon as lacking credibility, or the failure by a personal representative or trustee to properly carry out the instructions provided in the will or trust agreement.

It is important to note that there are important time constraints and procedural deadlines after which you may not be able to contest a will or trust. After probate is completed or a trust administration is finalized, it is normally not possible to initiate legal action.
